Description

The bispecific antibody of chemistry locking
Technical field
Present disclose provides the bispecific or heterodimeric for forming chemistry locking with high specific and high homogeneity The method of body antibody (preferred IgG classes).More specifically, utilizing bio-orthogonal click chemistry (bio- present disclose provides having Orthogonal click chemistry) connection bonding pad chemistry locking bispecific IgG antibody-likes.
Cross-Reference to Related Applications
Patent application claims on May 10th, 2014 submit to No. 61/991,508 U.S. Provisional Patent Application it is preferential Power.
Background technology
Immunoglobulin G or IgG antibody exist with four subclass, and each subclass has different 26S Proteasome Structure and Functions special Property.IgG is made up of two heavy chain-light chains to (incomplete antibody), and the heavy chain-light chain is residual to the Cys in by being directly connected to hinge area Base (EU index numbers:Cysteine residues 226 and 229;Kabat is numbered:Two between cysteine residues 239 and heavy chain 242) Sulfide linkage connects.The molecule of human IgG 4 with molecular species presence, its by weight interchain disulfide bond presence or absence of and it is different.
Diversified recombinant antibodies form is had been developed for, such as by merging IgG antibody form and single domain The tetravalence bispecific antibody (159-163 of Coloman etc., Nature Biotech 15 (1997);WO 2001/077342;With The 1233-1234 of Morrison, Nature Biotech 25 (2007)).Another kind of form has the antibody core knot for no longer retaining Structure (IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG or IgM), such as Diabody, three body antibody or four body antibody, miniantibody, several single stranded forms (scFv、Bis-scFv).But this kind of form can be with reference to two or more antigens (Holliger etc., Nature Biotech 23(2005)1126-1136;The Fischer and 3-14 of Leger, Pathobiology 74 (2007);Shen etc., J.Immunological Methods 318(2007)65-74;With Wu etc., Nature Biotech.25 (2007) 1290- 1297)。
Report in US 2005/0163782 for from comprising wherein by the dimerization of at least one interchain disulfide bond connection Body and wherein by least one interchain disulfide bond connection the dimeric two types mixture in will be by least one The dimer of individual interchain disulfide bond connection is separated with the dimer not connected by least one interchain disulfide bond or preferentially synthesized The dimeric method connected by least one interchain disulfide bond.
Bispecific antibody is to be difficult with traditional hybrids knurl and chemical conjugation methods with sufficient amount and quality The material of generation.Additionally, WO2005/062916 and U.S. Patent application 2010/0105874 are describeed how by going back original antibody " AA " and antibody " BB " with by disulfide bond be separated into the chain of the substance with single calmodulin binding domain CaM-light chain unit (A or B) (wherein A and Both B are with reference to different targets) forming bispecific antibody.Then, antibody allows disulfide bond that isomerization occurs, so that anti- Body AB, BA, AA and BB are each recombinated with about 25% probability.However, both AB and BA are identical bispecific antibodies, and because This at most shows about 50% yield.Therefore, this need extra step by the bispecific antibody needed for being formed from Original recombinant antibodies are separated.However, U.S. Patent application 2010/0105874 points to the hinge in the IgG4 with CPSC sequences Sequence, and state:" CPSC sequences cause more flexible core hinge and form the possibility ... of intrachain disulfide bond. it is believed that tool The antibody for having IgG4 sample core hinge sequences can have the intrinsic activity for resetting disulfide bond, and it passes through in the inventive method The condition simulation for using " (the 0013rd section).Additionally, being prepared for the bispecific antibody of other forms, it has by changing Become " pestle and mortar " structure of the sequence of heavy chain generation of antibody A and B.
Therefore, present disclose provides the method for producing the bispecific IgG antibody of chemistry locking, it meets this area to double The pestle and mortar method of the amino acid sequence in the needs and the antibody regions more fixed than change of the very high yield of specific antibody With more preferable stability.
